Starting today, June 8 15:00 CEST / 06:00 PDT is Io Interactive’s Third Elusive Target event for all owners of HITMAN’s Episode Two: Sapienza chapter. This time around, Agent 47 has been tasked with the assassination of Adalrico “The Prince” Candelaria, a Catholic Cardinal on the road to becoming the next Vatican Pope, who’s linked to a ruthless Chilean Military dictatorship. Unlike the previous Elusive Targets, this time around players have just one chance within the next 72 hours, ending June 11, 15:00 CEST / 06:00 PDT, to finish the mission or his holiness will continue down the path of “righteousness”. Why don’t you be a good assassin and help the heavenly Father meet his maker earlier than expected.

If you’re keeping count, this marks the third contract out of five needed to receive an exclusive in-game reward, three down and two to go, good luck agents, you’re going to need it!

Be sure to watch the mission briefing trailer before you go and for more insight on HITMAN’s Elusive Targets, please read the press release below.


Official Press Release

The third Elusive Target, The Prince is now live in Sapienza across all platforms. A briefing video is available online and in-game to help players determine the approximate location of the target. Players will need to own HITMAN Episode 2: Sapienza in order to access this content.

*This Elusive Target is available for 72 hours

Elusive Targets are part of the live content being published for HITMAN in-between episodes and represent a new game mode debuting for players. They are not going to be easy but if you can prove yourself, you’ll earn in-game rewards for completing multiple Elusive Target contracts, such as signature suits from previous Hitman games. You will receive the first reward for successfully completing 5 Elusive Target contracts.

The Elusive Targets are specially crafted, unique targets, which come with particular rules:

  • An Elusive Target is a once in a lifetime experience
  • They are available for a limited time only in game
  • Intel on the target will be limited
  • They will not appear in instinct mode, or the mini map and their locations will not be revealed to you – you’ll have to go and find them
  • Plan accordingly before you engage your target
  • Your target can only die once
  • If you die during the mission, that’s it
  • When the time runs out, they are gone for good
  • If you fail, there are no second chances

Don’t miss.
